What happens when we eat?

We have been learning about "What happens when we eat". We know that this is called digestion. In Room 11 we wrote explanations about what happens when we eat. We are also learning to use Flip Videos. Watch this video of Madi and Jon explaining digestion.

Pebble Jar Reward

In Room 11 we filled the "Positive Pebble Jar!" For our reward we got to make healthy Fruit Smoothies. We made three different kinds, berry, banana and peach. YUM!

The Healthy Food Pyramid

We used books and the internet to find out where different foods should go on the Healthy Food Pyramid. We had to change a few things. Now we know what foods we can eat the most of and what foods to only eat sometimes. Have a listen to what some children have learnt about Healthy Food.

What we think we should eat...

We put all these foods onto the healthy food pyramid where we thought they should go. We didn't glue the food on yet because we wanted to find out more and see if we were right.

Have a look. Are there any changes that you would make?

Lots of blog visits!

Wow! We have had people visit our blog from all over the world. We are very lucky to have so many people interested in what we are learning.

Interesting Visitor

Today Ryan's mum Vicki came to tell us all about bones.
Vicki takes photos of peoples bones. This is called an xray.
We learnt that ...
* Bones protect us. Our skull protects our brain and
our ribs protect our heart.
* Babies have 300 bones in their bodies and adults
have 206 bones.
*Cheese, yoghurt, milk, exercise and sun are all
very good for our bones.

What we think is good for our bodies.
